"Phil Knight wants Tubby at Oregon," a source tells the Minneapolis Star-Tribune of the Ducks' super-booster's interest in the Gophers coach.

The Ducks are known to have interviewed four candidates, and former athletic director Pat Kilkenny, who is overseeing the search, has said he hopes to make a hire by the Final Four, which is April 3-5.

Elsewhere, college basketball insider David Pump tells John Canzano the following, while calling Pittsburgh coach Jamie
Dixon and Texas A&M coach Mark
Turgeon Oregon's top priorities: "Oregon job is a Top 20 job, it's extremely, extremely
attractive. They're paying top dollars and will probably end up paying
more (to the next coach) than any Pac-10 school out there."
